>> i think i was the only one concerned because i don't like boats but everyone else was loving it. >> i was loving it as soon as we got off the boat that wasn't sinking. now i'm cool with it. >> no one was hurt. the coast guard near the ferry building is pumping water out of it so it can be towed to shore. a bakery hit the jackpot when starbucks bought it for $100 million a few months ago but now some workers say hundreds of employees have received an ultimatum, and it may cost them their jobs. in a story you will only see on cbs 5, reporter sharon chin on the warning letters and the one thing these workers have to prove. >> reporter: workers say they will be fired in two months because they are illegal immigrants. they don't have firm numbers but up to 400 people could be fired. we obtained a letter to an

employee of la boulange from the new owner starbucks that says there is a discrepancy in social security numbers and they have 60 days to prove they are not illegal immigrants or they will be fired. this worker is an illegal immigrant and wanted to be disguised. >> we put a lot of effort and love and like, uhm, work towards the company. >> reporter: 200 cooks, dishwashers and other prep workers would be fired at the 19 stores and another 200 where the artisan bakeries are baked in san francisco. one worker isn't worried because he is an american citizen. so you got noticed that your social security number doesn't match or isn't right? >> yeah. yeah. aa

lot of people are worried. >> reporter: a spokesman told me that word that employees will be fired is completely false. he says no one has lost their job because they are undocumented. starbucks' policy is to comply with all labor laws. now, in california, starbucks says it doesn't use everify that program that checks to see whether a person is here in the country legally or not. starbucks says that la boulange didn't use it either. >> sharon, you did talk to an employee who said he was an american citizen. did you talk to any others and were they having a problem with what this may possibly do? >> yeah. for example, the very first gentleman that we talked to the one wanted his face as well as his voice disguised said he got that letter he saw a picture of that letter that he is one who is an illegal immigrant worked

for the company at la boulange for years and said he is upset. he worked for the company, invested his time and care in the company and now suddenly because lack of being a citizen he is being asked to leave. he says some people in the same boat as he are looking for other jobs and others of them have two jobs. so yeah. it's like a wild movie plot in l.a. i mean, look at this. a surreal sight to say the least. one that will go down in history. thousands of people lined up to watch the space shuttle endeavour squeeze past buildings as it rolled down the streets of los angeles. we have a live look at the 85- ton shuttle prepping for round 2. hey, dad, what's that? it's the shuttle. parked in the slow lane. cbs reporter juan fernandez

through. >> reporter: for the bridge crossing an unmodified toyota tundra truck from a local dealership will tow it. an l.a. stuntman will be behind the wheel. >> we had three months of testing to say yes, we could do this. so we pulled more than what's in there that the program weighs of the 292,000 pounds and we were over 300,000 pounds we pulled. >> reporter: must be a proud moment. >> absolutely. >> reporter: this is one shuttle crossing people here say they won't miss. >> it's wonderful. this is the beginning and conclusion of retirement. >> reporter: the family affair, is it? >> yes, itis. it'ss wonderful. >> in some spots endeavour had only a 6" clearance with the wing tips. i would so be down there. talk about a tight fit. the officers crossed the line and got punished. suspensions, terminations, and a demotion. it's yet another blow for the

oakland police department. cbs 5 reporter christin ayers on how much officers were disciplined for their actions during the "occupy" crackdown. >> reporter: one year, countless clashes between oakland police and "occupy" protestors and more than 1100 complaints of police misconduct. now the oakland police department cracking down on its own calling for the firings of two officers and demoting suspending or reprimanding 42 others. >> only in cases where people clearly violated policy were they held accountable. >> reporter: the violations range from excessive use of force on protestors to failing to turn on the chest-mound videocameras officers are required to wear. some officers refused to give protestors their names or badge numbers. others lied about their behavior while being investigated. >> this is what i wanted. i wanted the oakland police to be able to look at itself and discipline itself. >> reporter: for officers it's

a slap in the face at a time when homicides have spiked in oakland and the numbers of officers on the streets has dropped. >> the city has thrown its hard working officers who have a vocation to protect the citizens under the bus with this report. >> reporter: now, there is some talk tonight that all of this is meant to impress a federal judge who will hear arguments come december about whether to hand the oakland police department over to federal control. we asked mayor quan about that. she said that's nonsense. live in oakland, christin ayers, cbs 5. the vice-presidential candidates were back on the campaign trail after going at each other in the debate last night. and as cbs 5's allen martin reports, the two campaigns tangled again today all over the meaning of one of the shortest words in the english language. >> the lowest level -- >> reporter: call it a wharf world. the obama and romney campaigns are squabbling over joe biden's
